Very good if taken with a UML/SAD textbook

The authors of this book lead you progressively through the development of a commercially successful e-sales site that they themselves were involved in. During this, you progress methodically through the general theory and development that justify their web design. The strength of this book lies in its range of topics and the chapters on cross-linking pages using 'information domains'. However, their documentation of a genuine commercial web site for small-medium companies has not been matched for conciseness (in my experience, please inform if wrong).I read this book in an afternoon. This doesn't mean that the book is lightweight, just that it is well-written and gets to the point. Another bonus: this book is refreshingly free of padding; i.e. old NewYorker/Dilbert cartoons, references, glossaries, psycho-babble and large margins 'for your own notes'.
